I paid rent all year and accidently entered the wrong amount on the earned income section. Why can't I go back up update the amounts for each month

Personal rent paid is not claimed on a Federal return.  Are you asking about some State provision, as generally rent has nothing to do with EIC?

I'm in the same situation. Is it a big deal that for rent paid I put down my monthly rent amount instead of the yearly amount. Should I not even worry about changing it

Rent Paid is not entered in your Federal Return.  Are you trying to claim a State Renter's Credit?

 

If you could clarify, we'll try to help.
